Quick Blurb
From drafting board to beadboard, my passion for crafting and jewelry making is such a treasure I hold close to my heart.
Interests
I've been always fascinated creating things with my hands, at the tender age of 5 I was able to sew my doll dresses.I've done crocheting, embroidery, scrapbooking but the lure of beads and wires just fascinate me most.
Skills and Techniques
I am actually a self taught jewelry designer and have been able to teach through actual experiences. It started as a hobby on a beautiful spring of 2000 and I am still learning and I will never stop til there's beads and wires.

Get to Know
Inspired with the warmth of the beautiful island of Hawaii blessed with year long summer, I transform delicate beads and precious jewelry findings into a distinctive work of art,Ã, and I take special attention to every piece of jewelry I designed with the high aspirations to satisfy your unique "sense of individuality".I take pleasure in providing you special pieces that aren't mass produced so many of my pieces are one of a kind and of limited quantity. Designing and creating jewelry commence on a beautiful spring of year 2000. Aloha, from the busy world of architecture to jewelry making. I am a self taught jewelry designer, a happy mom to 2 teen girls plus a Christmas baby boy and wife to a self-employed guy. My mom I would say is a gifted crafter in crocheting, she's my sparing partner. I was also an instructor/demonstrator at OLELO TV with Carole Mitos show -Hawaii's Hobbies and Crafts, a volunteer work I did for 6 months, that had allowed me to explore the world outside the 4 corners of my home studio. I have truly found the simple pleasures of life and enjoyed making jewelry away from the complicated demands of the construction world which I have given up to attend to the needs of my two girls for 8 years and now I am back again full time 8 hour job and taking care of my new baby plus jewelrymaking, as my desert on every meals. Jewelry making and crafting are my "haven of rest", keep me all alive from all the challenges in life.
